I stumbled across this while looking for more Lady Paletuna pictures...



Also, Morgan is about to show Noire his bug collection, and things can't go up from there.

:4mario: = Looking around to find the one responsible. Kind of like if you are on the bus and someone nearby is smelly.

Who ever made that Photoshop... I can't wait to find them and give them a piece of my mind.:107:

how is this social thread so active holy slunk
That's a good question, actually.

I think it may be because of how active the thread was prior to Robin's confirmation. Back then, the number of supporters began increasing at a rapid rate, and despite Robin's seemingly low chances, the community thrived. Once Robin was actually confirmed (destroying the Gematsu Leak and challenging everything we thought we knew in the process), the number of Robin fans only increased further, and the hype never truly died down.

At least, that's what I think. I'm sure there are other factors contributing to this thread's activity.

The good thing about the Jigglypuff emoticon is that you always use it properly. :4jigglypuff:
I just wish that it was her victory pose instead- the one where she creepily side-eyes the viewer. I love how awkwardly creepy it is.

Are we shipping real people now?
It was only a matter of time.

Also, Fire Emblem has a lively bunch of characters that are easy to talk about and, by extension, branch into several other conversations from there. Be it Morgan, Owain, Lucina, Robin, Chrom, Cynthia, other Morgan, or Walhart, we've always got some crazy things to discuss.

Also also (that should be a thing), Robin appears to be the most popular newcomer, based on some polls I've seen around the web. Naturally, his character thread will be one of the most popular.

Also also also (it's now a thing), Robin supporters like me who wanted to find a venue to discuss our favorite character without all the anti-Robin and anti-Lucina hate found refuge here, and since everyone in this thread is pretty welcoming (when we're not arguing about the roster), some of us have stayed. I feel like most of Robin's biggest fans are also Lucina fans, which has made us pretty accepting to most of the roster since there's almost no way that a character could be clonier than her (Dark Pit walks a thin line between clonier and not clonier).

That's implying shipping necessitates LEWD THOUGHTS

You should be ashamed of yourself :4jigglypuff:
The original question about user ships stated something along the words of "having a Morgan."

Really lazy to scroll up, but it's "make the best Morgans."

Well, in Awakening, they get "married". Obvious a baby was made at some point, but it's not actually an interactive aspect of the game, in the sense the player is not present. Like with Harvest Moon, they just happen to be, but you don't see it.

I should play Harvest Moon one day. Harvest Moon appeals to me more than Animal Crossing does.

If you can, get the 64 version. Best in the series.

Which is unfortunate because it's the one version not on Virtual Console.

Morgan is the child of Robin. Female if Robin is male, male if Robin is female. No matter who Robin marries, Morgan will ALWAYS exist. Even if Robin's spouse can't produce a child of their own.

People who supported Robin were referred to as "Tacticians", which is Robin's in-game class. Today, the term Tactician is still used around here to refer to members of the community, especially those who actually intend to play the character.

Thus, we as Tacticians are implied to be Robins, and thus because we are Robins, our children are Morgans.

"Morgan" is also sometimes used to refer to someone joined joined this sub-community of ours after Robin's reveal.:115:

Morgan is the child of Robin and whoever you marry him/her to. Since Robin is (technically) your avatar, Morgan is essentially your child. Morgan also happens to be one of the best units in the game.

EDIT: Dang it, Hong... :4greninja:

Morgan is the bane of my existence, you HAVE to be Male Robin in order to have a female Morgan. It is torture. Sometimes... I do not even unlock Male Morgan because I am disgusted with his existence.

Less puns and jokes, more tears.


;A;
;_; SO MANY TEARS.

But more importantly he made Master Hand a lefty when he's canonically a right hand and that mildly bothers me even though there's no reason it should.
